Welcome to NMSU Anthropology!
Anthropologists study the human species and our closest non-human relatives. We seek to understand the human condition in all of its diversity, past and present, so that we can shape our future. We look for answers to the questions:
- Who are we?
- Where did we come from?
- How did we get here?
- Why are we different from each other?
- What do all humans share in common?
- And, how can we better understand each other?
